d-boot is actually the wrong mailing list to discuss grub.
Despite its name it's mostly for debian-installer.
I don't know if the others are even subscribed to d-boot.
/boot/grub for grub-pc is only purged if debconf has
grub-pc/postrm_purge_boot_grub == true
But I don't know the reason why unicode.pf2 is purged for grub-efi-
